Step 4
Click on the ‘change your password’ link
Step 5
3 boxes will appear. In the first box you are asked to type your current Windows password. (by default:”password”) In the next 2 boxes, enter the new password and then re-enter it a second time in the last box for confirmation. Underneath this, you are asked to type a password hint, to help you remember your password should you forget it. This is optional but highly recommended.

You can now close the User Account window and continue work on your laptop. Remember to use the new password next time you log onto your computer!
